The Spanish Cesc Fàbregas, midfielder for Monaco, admitted, when watching the resumption of the German Bundesliga on television this Saturday, with closed-door matches, that he felt "like I'm watching a training session".
"You can hear all players and coaches shouting. Now we will value the power of the fans even more. Captains choosing pitch sides with 3 meters distance when straight away they have to fight for every ball against each other face to face..." said the World Cup and European champion with the national team and former player of Arsenal, Barcelona, and Chelsea on his social networks.
Cesc said he is glad "that football is back". "We all needed it, but it will take us years to get used to this new football world", stated Cesc.
The Bundesliga resumed this Saturday afternoon with several matches after a break due to the coronavirus pandemic, but it had to do it without an audience in the stands and following the safety measures imposed by the health authorities.
